## 🖥️ SCEPTER Studio
### Launch
To fully experience **SCEPTER Studio**, you can launch the following command line:
```shell
pip install scepter
python -m scepter.tools.webui
```
or run after clone repo code
```shell
git clone https://github.com/modelscope/scepter.git
PYTHONPATH=. python scepter/tools/webui.py --cfg scepter/methods/studio/scepter_ui.yaml
```
The startup of **SCEPTER Studio** eliminates the need for manual downloading and organizing of models; it will automatically load the corresponding models and store them in a local directory.
Depending on the network and hardware situation, the initial startup usually requires 15-60 minutes, primarily involving the download and processing of SDv1.5, SDv2.1, and SDXL models.
Therefore, subsequent startups will become much faster (about one minute) as downloading is no longer required.

### Modelscope Studio & Huggingface Space
We deploy a work studio on Modelscope that includes only the inference tab, please refer to [ms_scepter_studio](https://www.modelscope.cn/studios/iic/scepter_studio/summary) and [hf_scepter_studio](https://huggingface.co/spaces/modelscope/scepter_studio)
## ⚙️️ ComfyUI Workflow
We support the use of all models in the ComfyUI Workflow through the following methods:
1) Automatic installation directly via the ComfyUI Manager by searching for the **ComfyUI-Scepter** node.
2) Manually install by moving custom_nodes from Scepter to ComfyUI.
```shell
git clone https://github.com/modelscope/scepter.git
cd path/to/scepter
pip install -e .
cp -r path/to/scepter/workflow/ path/to/ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Scepter
cd path/to/ComfyUI
python main.py
```
**Note**: You can use the nodes by dragging the sample images into ComfyUI. Additionally, our nodes can automatically pull models from ModelScope or HuggingFace by selecting the *model_source* field, or you can place the already downloaded models in a local path.
